Sowing, Seeds, Planting

Clematis prefer moist, well-drained soil with the base of the plant in shade and growth tips in light. Try mulching around the base to offer this protection from heat and light.

Care Tips

No annual pruning is needed. If the spread of the plant needs to be tidied then prune directly after flowering, cutting back long shoots to healthy buds

Flowering

April - May

Vase Life

Pick short-stemmed, single flowers for mini arrangements or larger, multi-headed tresses to cascade out of large vases. Sear stem ends for 15 seconds to maximise vase life.
